Hmmm... guess I shoulda mentioned that mine were 195/60-14's :)
I've only done one autox on my set (most of the time I run R-compounds), so
I still have quite a bit of tread left.

I haven't noticed temp changes effecting the noise level, but I've found
that after about 5000 miles on them they tend to start growing louder.
I get a truck tire noise around 20-30 mph.
I'm about to order another set, as the rain is coming, and I've got a
considerable portion of non legal tread depth on them.
A set of 225/45-17's installed for me was $550. They lasted about 12
events and 10,000 street miles.

Do you notice them being noiser as the ambient temperature drops? This
sure
seems to be the case with my car.
Still no complaints about the performance of these tires, though,
especially
for $250 shipped for the entire set!
